I guess I find that kind of odd! Linaro certainly in the past has
published many a build with working panda support. I've had 2 panda
and 1 panda es board and they certainly were running Linaro releases
over the years.
You might want to look into older releases on http://releases.linaro.org

I personally like the odroid boards, I've got an xu that I used to use
quite a bit. No idea if they'd make a good starting point for a car
project tho.
